Ex-cricketers get united
Former players under the banner "Cricketers of Bangladesh" will hold a press conference on Thursday to explain their position regarding the amendments made to the Bangladesh Cricket Board's constitutions.
This was decided during a meeting held at the Dhaka Club where former national captains including Gazi Ashraf Hossain, Faruque Ahmed, Naimur Rahman and Khaled Mahmud as well as former player Shakil Kasem were present.
According to the proposed amendment that was approved at the board's extraordinary general meeting held on March 1, it was ensured that there will be no cricketer-councillor, fifteen of whom exist in the present constitution, while the forum also dismissed the existence of CWAB (Cricketers' Welfare Association of Bangladesh).
The former cricketers believe that this will limit their involvement in the overall development of the game.
